I am looking for any information on my children's Grandfather, ELBERT HARRISON SPEARS, lived in Porum, and Webbers Falls areas for 40 years, from approximately 1910 until 1950, when he moved to Sayre, Oklahoma. Elbert died in Sayre, Oklahoma, Nov. 1, 1954, Any one knowing or knowing of this man, please help. Trying to do a family tree for my children and grandchildren. We have hit a brick wall. Elbert was born in Arkansas from what we understand. His father's name was Nick Spears and mother Linda (maiden name unknown). He married Lilly May Burr sometime between 1925-1930. They had 4 children, oldest was son Clinton, born 1930 in Webbers Falls, set of twins Aline and Allen, then my husband Kenneth Ray Spears born Feb. 11, 1936, in Webbers Falls. They divorced and Elbert then married Ruth Murray on March 8, 1942. They had 7 children, 4 of who were born in Webbers Falls. Please, someone must know or remember this man. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Sincerely, Joyce (Spears) Wafford

Hi, All. I just received this from one of my Kay County researchers. I checked, and yes, although it starts out requesting the smartlink, it gets diverted to this role playing game. I have deleted the link from my page temporarily. You might want to check yours.

Could someone tell me the years of the Depression? Also, someone on the list had sent some time ago a site that had a time frame showing what all was taking place during the years of the past. Does anyone still have that site location? I can't find mine and think I must have lost it when I cleaned out the system. Paula/Oregon

Under the water is Old Woodville Oklahoma which is between Kingston & Calera. Does anyone know the mileage from that area to Durant? Sounds like a silly question but I have a reason for it, please. If someone could help me ? I sure would appreciate it very much. Thank you. >Vicki ,Houston TX I don't know the exact location of Old Woodville, but a railroad line goes from Durant to New Woodville. If Old Woodville was on the same railroad line and its location was in the spot that is in the center of the part of the lake the rail crosses. It would be 13 miles from Old Woodville to Durant using roads that are in use today. It would seem logical that the town would be on the railroad line. They would have just moved it back west far enough to get it out of the lake's way. New Woodville is about 3 miles from the lake shore. I forgot I had "Oklahoma Place Names". It says Woodville is 5 miles southeast of Kingston. That means it not below water. I wasn't using my map with the notes. I found that there is a Old Woodville Cemetery and a Woodville Cemetery near the lake shore on the west side near the town of McBride. There are lots of roads in the area, but they might be new. Gene
